You spoke in metaphors
Trying to portray a sense of beauty
I'm the worthless words you're spewing
Through your lips
You made it such a chore
Just to look back at the wasted weekends
Got caught in a playful pretence
That I would hold so true
You couldn't see it through
And I'm not gonna pry
When talking about love
Its your call (×3)
But with all the wasted time
I've had enough
Not your fault (×3)
Don't take it personal
You've opened several doors
Given me strength and a sense of wonder
I played it cool just to be your lover
All night
But I found it so much more
Than holding on tight to a bunch of blank feeling
I know you're far from healing
I watched you fall apart
Darling I know your scars
And I'm not gonna pry
When talking about love
Its your call (×3)
But with all the wasted time
I've had enough
Not your fault (×3)
Don't take it personal
I watched you disappear
And I fought back every tear
And I'm not gonna pry
When talking about love
Its your call (×3)
But with all the wasted time
I've had enough
Not your fault (×3)
Don't take it personal
(×2)
